Description

Lorsque le rayonnement solaire arrive sur le sol de notre planète, il est en partie réfléchi. Cette réflexion, qui dépend de la couleur et de la matière de la surface concernée, est nommée « albédo ».C'est ce phénomène qui permet d’expliquer en partie les basses températures des régions polaires. When the solar radiation arrives on the ground of our planet, it is partly reflected. This reflection, which depends on the color and the material of the surface concerned, is called "albedo." This phenomenon explains in part the low temperatures of the polar regions.
